Group wants 2 Supreme Court justices removed after Carr sentences overturned WICHITA, KS - It was a brutal crime that rocked the city of Wichita and has gone down as one of the worst crimes in state history. Fourteen years ago, two brothers were accused of going on a crime spree of murder, assault, rape and robbery, killing five people in the brutal attacks. Two years later, Reginald and Jonathan Carr were tried, convicted and sentenced to death, but recently the Kansas Supreme Court overturned their death penalty sentences and some convictions. Now there is a movement to have two Supreme Court justices removed from the bench following their decision on the case. "Took our breathe away. We were all completely shocked and devastated again that it felt like we were going back to that day," Amy James said. That day for James dates back to December 2000 and is considered one of the worst in the history of Kansas as the Carr brothers wrapped up the brutal crime spree. Brad Heyka was one of five victims who were assaulted, tortured and taken to a frozen field where they were shot execution style and run over with a truck.

The Carr brothers were convicted of capital murder and sentenced to death. But 14 years after their murderous spree, the Kansas Supreme Court overturned their death penalties, stating the trial judge should have separated their penalty proceeding. Several convictions were also overturned. James and other victims' family members were at the Kansas Supreme Court when the appeal arguments were being heard last December. “What really upset me was how the justices talked about it like they were talking about the weather. They were very arrogant," she said. With the six-to-one ruling to overturn the death penalty, the family and friends have formed the group Kansans for Justice. They are urging voters not to retain Kansas Supreme Court Justices Eric Rosen and Lee Johnson in the Nov. 4 election. "Help us remove those two justices so that we can hopefully put new people in place who will move cases along," James said. James said putting the surviving victim through another trial is criminal itself and believes it's time to focus on the victims who lost their lives and not the monsters who took them. - (Black-on-white)

(Bleeding) Kansas court overturns black killer-rapist brothers' death sentences - Jul 25, 2014TOPEKA, KS - The Kansas Supreme Court on Friday overturned the death sentences of two brothers convicted of capital murder in a crime spree in Wichita in 2000 including robbery, rape, forced sex and four fatal shootings in a snow-covered soccer field. The court also struck down three of the four capital murder convictions each against Jonathan and Reginald Carr. It upheld one capital murder conviction for each of them. Their cases will return to Sedgwick County District Court for further hearings. The court's majority overturned their death sentences because the presiding judge did not hold separate proceedings for each man. In overturning most of their capital convictions, the majority said the instructions to jurors were flawed. The justices on Friday issued a separate ruling for each brother. The Carr brothers' crimes are among the most notorious in the state. The victims in the December 2000 attacks that culminated in a bloody scene in a snowy field were: Aaron Sander, 29; Brad Heyka, 27; Jason Befort, 26; and Heather Muller, 25. Another woman who was shot in the head survived and ran naked through the snow to seek help, becoming a key witness at the brothers' trial. Prosecutors said the five friends were in a Wichita home when two armed intruders forced them to engage in sex with each other and later made them withdraw money from automatic teller machines. The two women were raped repeatedly before the five were taken to the soccer field and shot while they were kneeling. The Carr brothers also were convicted of first-degree murder in connection with the fatal shooting of a 55-year-old cellist, Ann Walenta of Wichita, only days before the spree that left four dead. Jonathan Carr, now 34, and Reginald Carr, 36, were in their early 20s when the crimes occurred. Together, they were convicted of 93 crimes, including rape, aggravated kidnapping and aggravated robbery and sentenced to death. The Supreme Court upheld a total of 57 convictions against them. - (Black-on-white) - (Bloody Witchita)

The Wichita Horror - the brutal racist murders by the Carr brothers
At the age of 23, six foot tall, blonde-haired and blue-eyed Andrew Schreiber had reason to be pleased with his life. He had always been an outdoors type so his job as assistant baseball coach at Newman University in Wichita Kansas, suited him perfectly. He says he has been a baseball enthusiast "since I could walk. I usually play catcher so I can be involved in every play, every pitch." When he's not catching a ball on a diamond field, he's often putting one on a golf course.
On the chilly night of December 8, 2000, the strapping bachelor feared his life would come to an abrupt end....
A hideous sexual orgy began. The women were commanded to perform oral sex and digital penetration on each other.... He asked if she had ever been with a black man before and H.G. said she had not. Then he asked if the rapist was "better" than her boyfriend was. Again she said, "yes."
"Relax," he said. "We're not going to shoot you yet." - (reader link)

Murdering Black Brothers May Get Another Chance by James BuchananThe perpetrators of one of the worst mass murders in U.S. history have had their sentence reduced from death to life in prison. (Ref. 1) Perhaps future liberal activists will try to release one or both brothers so that history can repeat itself. Four White people were murdered in "The Wichita Massacre" and a fifth victim was wounded. The four were killed execution-style in a snow-covered field. One of the killers had just been released from prison. The victims had been tortured, raped and robbed. - (forum)

A Sedgwick County judge ruled Thursday that relatives of four
people who were murdered by Reginald and Jonathan Carr in December
2000 can continue their negligence lawsuit against the state of Kansas."White
citizens of Kansas will pay for negritude"- (Tyrone N. Butts)

Husband
of Carr Victim Sues State Carr Mistakenly Released From Jail Before
Murder SpreeWICHITA,
Kan. -- The husband of a slain Wichita woman is suing the state, claiming it negligently
paroled the man who later killed his wife. Don
Walenta filed the lawsuit Monday in Sedgwick County District Court.
His lawsuit comes three weeks after Reginald Carr and his brother, Jonathan
Carr, were convicted of murdering Ann Walenta
and four others during a December 2000 crime spree. The brothers received the
death penalty. The complaint says that if the state had not mistakenly released
Reginald Carr on parole, he would have been in jail the night Ann Walenta was
shot. - (forum)

Wichita:
After Carr trial, EMS explains response - victim was breathing more than two hours
after shot EMS officials eventually decided to treat and transport
the victim -- who suffered a clearly fatal head wound -- because the body continued
to take shallow, intermittent breaths. It was the type of breathing that experts
say is a reflex of a dead body, not a sign of life. Still, Lamkey said, the coroner
declined to certify the victim as dead because the irregular breathing continued.
Trauma victims sometimes show agonal respiration, but usually it lasts only
five to 10 minutes, said Dan Caliendo, a Wichita emergency room doctor. But the
irregular breathing had persisted for more than two hours by the time Dudley arrived,
and because of it, she could not certify that the person was dead, Lamkey said.

The
Atrocity in Wichita by James Buchanan "The Wichita Massacre
should be retold to all White people especially the naive liberal types, who say
foolish things like "Can't we all just get along?" All White people
should own guns to defend themselves and all White people should have their eyes
open for minority criminals in their neighborhoods." -

11/16/02: STATEMENT
FROM ANDREW SCHREIBER "Unlike five of the other victims in this
case, I'm able to stand here and talk for myself...." "...It is
not vengeance that I seek, it is just justice, and I hope that it comes as quickly
as possible in a swift manner. Again, I am not seeking vengeance, I seek justice."
- (from Wichita Eagle)

[A
reader comments] - "...These murders have touched me in away I can't
describe. 1) WHY hasn't this story been national news?!! As you point
out. WHY?!!!! I read about this horror only today, 2 years later, in an AP
article. NEVER heard of it before and I read a lot. 2) I'm a fairly liberal
minded person... BUT can anyone explain WHY this is not a hate crime? I applaud
your making the info on this available. I want those f***ers dead. NOW! Keep on
reporting. Thanks" - a Reader from Massachusetts

Wichita: Carr brothers sentenced to death Reginald
and Jonathan Carr this afternoon were both sentenced to death for four murders
in Wichita in December 2000. The jury in the Carr capital murder trial, which
last week convicted the two men of the murders and of a long list of other crimes,
agreed that both men should be executed for the capital murders. The two will
be sentenced by Judge Paul Clark tomorrow on the remaining charges.

Wichita:
Police: Display not a hate crime Dummies hanging by nooses
from a tree might upset members of racial minorities but aren't criminal, police
say. Two black-faced dummies hanging by nooses in a Wichita front yard --
one resident's statement against two men convicted of a killing spree -- does
not constitute a hate crime, police said Friday. "As disturbing as it
may be to our community, it does not rise to the level of a crime," Deputy
Police Chief Robert Lee said at a news conference.

Winona
and the Wichita massacre - by Michelle Malkin Here is a story
of two trials and how they were covered in the news. Or not covered. You tell
me what it says about the media's twisted values. The first trial was held in
Beverly Hills. The accused was Hollywood starlet Winona Ryder, charged with shoplifting
at a Saks Fifth Avenue store. A Nexis search turned up more than 500 stories on
the trial published over the past week alone.

11/07/02: "Carr
brothers not monsters, women insist" - by Ron Sylvester - The
Wichita Eagle "Richele Kossmen spoke through tears as she
talked about the 7-year-old son she had with Reginald Carr."
"Reginald Carr had been put in diversion as a teen on a charge of
indecent solicitation of a child." "Mandy Carr, Reginald's
estranged wife, was pregnant with his second child on the night five people were
raped, robbed and shot in the back of the head." "Mandy Carr... knows
Reginald Carr came to Wichita, stayed with Stephanie Donley, and then went
on a weeklong crime spree that ended with his arrest in Donley's apartment."

11/07/02:
Convict's
wife pleads against death penalty "Mandy Carr tearfully told
jurors her husband had never held his infant daughter, who was born four months
after his arrest for the killings. Anthony began wetting the bed shortly after
his father was arrested again..."

Protest
Planned - Wichita - KAKE NewsThe National Socialist Movement could
be coming to Wichita to protest the Carr brothers' murder trial. The controversial
group is asking the city for a protest permit. Last summer, leaders of the National
Socialist Movement met in Topeka to protest the Carr trial. They believe the five
murders should be classified as hate crimes because the Carr brothers are black
and the victims were white. The group says the Carr brothers should be put to
death. The national socialist movement has asked the city for permits to rally
at Riverside Park and downtown Wichita on December 15th, the anniversary of the
Carr brothers' crimes. NAACP leaders say they will hold a counter rally
if the national socialist movement comes to Wichita. The Wichita Police Department
confirms the group is asking for a permit to protest. If the group does come to
Wichita, police say they will monitor the event. City leaders have yet to decide
if the group should be allowed a formal protest.

Carr
Brothers Sentencing A jury must decide whether two brothers
should be sentenced to death or life in prison for five killings, including a
quadruple murder of friends who were forced to engage in sex acts with each other
before each was shot in the head.

Carr
brothers found guilty of capital murderJonathan
and Reginald Carr were found guilty this afternoon of four counts of capital
murder. The brothers, who now face the death penalty, were found guilty of killing
four people in a soccer field near K-96 and Greenwich Road in December
2000. They also were found guilty of first-degree murder in the death of Ann
Walenta. Reginald Carr was also found guilty in the kidnapping and
robbery in the carjacking of Andrew Schreiber,
but Johnathan Carr was found not guilty in that crime. The Carrs also were
found guilty of attempted first degree murder against the woman who survived the
attack in the soccer field. She testified against the brothers during the trial,
which lasted eight weeks. The Carr brothers also were found guilty on numerous
charges of rape, aggravated robbery, burglary and theft. Prosecutors said the

Wichita:
Evidence in Carr trial gruesome, unavoidable
- BY RON SYLVESTER - The Wichita Eagle"The crimes charged
in the Carr case are gruesome." Dudley
found bruises on the bodies of Sander, Heyka and Befort. She said red ridges suggested
those injuries came from a golf club -- a driver with a wooden head --
found in the triplex where the men lived. The post-mortem exam on Muller, Dudley
said, showed injuries consistent with a sexual assault. At the request of police,
Dudley also performed an autopsy on a pet schnauzer that belonged to the survivor
of the Dec. 15 quadruple homicide. Dudley said the dog had been bludgeoned,
possibly with the golf club, and then stabbed through the neck with something
like an ice pick

The violent end contradicted Muller's life, described as
vivacious and charitable by those who knew her through her talent for music, her
dedication to church and a desire to help children.

Excerpt
from transcript: Q: Then what happened? A: He said something that
scared me, and I kind of jerked, and he told me "Relax" he wasn't going
to shoot me yet. And I kind of flipped out because he had told me prior to that
he wasn't going to shoot me, and he said he wasn't going to shoot me yet. He told
me to get down on all fours, and he penetrated me. Q: Penetrated what part
of your body? A: Vaginally. Q: With? A: His penis. Q: Do you recall
if he ejaculated internally into your vagina? A: He didn't ejaculate internally.
He told me to turn around and swallow it, and so I turned around and swallowed
it. Q: Did he place his penis into your mouth? A: Yes. Q: Then what
happened? A: I walked in front of him over to the bathroom. He opened the
door. I saw the skinny guy raping Heather vaginally. She was on all fours. I started
to open the door at the fatter guy's request, and the guy inside said 'Hold on,
I'm not done." And then we stood there in the hallway for a minute, and then
I opened the door again, and he directed me to come inside, and he raped me vaginally.

WichitaUpdate: Surprise
STD testimony stuns courtThe
survivor of a multiple homicide reveals that after the attacks, she
was found to have the same venereal disease as Reginald Carr, the man accused
of assaulting her.Stephanie Donley (pictured
at right) talks about her (sex) life with Reginald Carr during his
murder trial in District Court. Carr was arrested in her apartment. Stephanie
Donley, who testified Thursday, said she met "Reggie" Carr at a
nightclub in Dodge City in October 2000. She said she
recognized the presence of the STD when they began seeing each other
several weeks later. Carr would stay at her apartment at 5400 E. 21st St. when
she wasn't working the night shift as a nurse at a Wichita hospital. She said
neither he nor his younger brother, Jonathan, had jobs. - (forum)Note: Carr's girlfriend Stephanie Donley and
estranged wife Mandy Carr may also have been given the same STD that he
gave to his rape victim.

Carr
sexually molests District Attorney Nola Foulston during trialFoulston,
meanwhile, said Carr had been getting a little too close, making "knee-to-knee
contact" with her under the courtroom table while lawyer Val Wachtel cross-examined
witnesses. Wachtel, Greeno's co-counsel, usually sits between his client and the
prosecution. Judge Paul Clark ruled that officers would restrain Reginald
Carr's legs and hands under the table in a way unnoticeable to the jury.
